Twenty one players hit the gym this morning to get the Super Eagles training camp in Morocco up and running, while strikers Victor Osimhen and Odion Ighalo are due to join up later in the day.
Ighalo, for one, is coming out of international retirement.
The former Manchester United striker quit the national team soon after he finished top scorer at the 2019 AFCON in Egypt with five goals.
There have been mixed reaction to his comeback with critics insisting there are several younger strikers, who are now scoring goals across Europe and they ought to also get their chance with the Super Eagles.
Late replacement for goalkeeper Francis Uzoho, John Noble of Enyimba, will hit training camp Thursday, officials said.
